OutSystems Review by a satisfied user
- It has been very positive to interact with other Outsystems users at their NextStep conferences.
- Working with Outsystems partners has also been very positive. It leaves one feeling as though you developing the system that you can be excited about using.
- If you are a company with many third-party solutions and a small IT staff, OutSystems could be used as a single platform to replace these systems and potentially save you money and give you the option of building additional applications as needed using the same platform. This reduces your eco system's complexity and increases the speed at which new features can be brought in, when a developer needs to know only one platform.
